The simple fact is most busy departments can't be bothered with solving property crimes.
Worth reading again.
Fireball is very ignorant.

Well Clark in our county....
That is pretty much true...
We have like one sheriff and about 3 full time deputies to cover a county that is bigger than Rhode Island...
Protocol is, if you catch people robbing your home.... if the cops do respond... they don't arrest them, they don't have the funds to run the jail... so the cops will issue them a citation and a court date... and then leave...
more normal, Josephine County... will tell you to make a list of the things stolen and go on line and file a police report... and they will have it available to your insurance company...
Right here is all we have available here in Hooterville..
